The full meaning of the Roose- velt-Churchill understanding will probably be known if Germany should knock out Russia and start towards England. The thing about the meeting which is resented is the lack of candor a: d honesty in the attitude Of the president and high officials in Washington in giving out news of the ,conference to the American press and thru them to the public. First news of the meeting came from London as has most of the information since The navy in- sisted that Admiral .Stark was "on leave" hours after the Churchill- Roosevelt statement had been .broadcast to the world, The army said chief of Staff Marshall and Chief of Air Corps General Arnold were "on inspection," conveying the meaning that they were in this country. British newsmen were taken to the historic meeting while the white house advised correspondents ~o wait at the special train at Bos- ton. It is a sad reflection on the ad- ministration that the public receives *here news in a country at war and under strict censorship than in a so-called free democracy, wallow-: ing around in a national emergency. Wage Hour Law Has Not Helped Iowa Communities The statement that the Wage- hour lag, has helped the farmer, made in Iowa by a federal official, will indeed .be news to Io~,ans. The reasoning behind it is impossible tO follow. The wage-hour law has cost the farmer and people in the towns .by reason of the higher prices caused by increased labor costs. The propaganda put out in de- fense of the law is pure bunk, The wage-hour has certain features to commend it Rs well as others which are highly debatable But any statements that it has helped ,people in an agricultural region whether on farms or in town, is the limit. It has further thrown out of joint the long hours a farmer must work to obtain the goods to exchange for the product of the home in Lisbon, Tuesday, following a long illness. Two new operators began work at the local telephone exchange on Monday. They are Mrs. Howard Willis and Miss Velma Stinger. A reverant throng witnessed the impressive service with which the body of Ralph Hahn was laid to rest Sunday afternoon with military honors.

Wagor, Linn County AAA Chair- man, announced this week, follow- ing receipt of information from the AAA office in Des Moines. Since Iowa has 'been designated as one of the state~ which normal- ly produces a surplus of feed crops, the Iowa farm program will be ad- ministered under the first of five plans offered by the United States Department of Agriculture. Full payment for compliance with a farm's special crop allotments will be contingent on fully achieving the soil-conserving goal set up for the farm. In the plan selected for Iowa, this goal will be "devoting a minimum of at least 25 per cent of the crop land on the farm to con- serving crops during the entire 1942 crop year." Under the 1942 program, mini- mum soil-conserving goals have been designed to bring about more conservation on individual farms and to encourage production of commodities needed under the de- fense program. While these minimum goals re- place total soil-depleting allotments in most of the country, total allot- ments are b~lng retained in sur- plus feed-producing areas, includ- ing Iowa. In Linn County, crop allotments will be determined for corn, wheat and feed grains. The wheat allot- ment of 722 acres has already been announced, and the other allot- ments will be set later, according to Wager. Aside from the establishment of minimum soil-conserving goals, the electric lights in their hen houses 1942 program in l,inn County will can make the old "biddies" boost follow closely the current program. poultry .profits higher this fall by Maximum payments for soil-build- turning on the lights during the ing practices will be substantially latter part of August to keep them the same as in ]941. in production, says County Agent Palisades Rex B.
